Oyster_plot_incr_CS function

Plot the result of interpolation of sub-increments

Plot the result of interpolation of sub-increments

Formula that plots the result of the interpolation of digitized shell growth increments to reconstruct sub-increments to provide a check on the progress of the model. de Winter, N. J. (2017) doi:10.5194/gmd-2017-137

Oyster_plot_incr_CS(IncG, incr_matrix, Tstep)

Arguments

  • IncG: Matrix of X- and Y-coordinates of all interpolated sub-increments
  • incr_matrix: Matrix listing characteristics of each digitized increment
  • Tstep: The step size (dt) in time (days) used to interpolate the existing shell increments

Details

In order to prevent overcrowding the plot area and slowing the plotting process, only original shell increments and sub-increments halfway between original increments are plotted. Sub-increments are colored blue

Returns

No data is exported, but a plot showing interpolated sub-increments is given in a separate window.
